Cool Stuff: Idiot Box Art Show

You probably remember Gallery 1988 as the Los Angeles-based art gallery which hosts the pop-culture infused Crazy4Cult show every year. We’ve featured artwork from their exhibitions in previous editions of cool stuff:Beastie Boys Inspired Art,Crazy4Cult 2, andStan Lee Tribute.
